Imagine a school where creativity is unleashed and potential unlocked...
…where classrooms don’t always need walls or ceilings, where the in-crowd’ stands for inclusivity not exclusivity, where an enviable forward thinking approach creates unforgettable learning opportunities and where confident, opinionated and curious alumnae are trailblazers and world shapers.
At Newcastle High School for Girls (NHSG) we not only educate our pupils, we empower them too. We give them the opportunity and confidence to develop their passions and shape their own pathway… and ultimately the future society in which they want to live.
In an all-girl learning environment pupils are free to be whoever and whatever they want to be. Whether they’re joining us aged three where indoor and outdoor learning sparks their curiosity; or enrolling in our sixth form to challenge themselves academically and personally, the sky really is the limit.
Under the guidance of Michael Tippett, who was appointed as Head in 2018, NHSG has seen a significant uplift in its examination results, winning it the award of The Sunday Times NE Independent Secondary School 2020. Alongside excellent teaching and learning, NHSG takes pastoral care and personal development equally as seriously. The importance of equipping girls with the broader life skills and values that combine to make happy, healthy and fulfilling lives is a binding principle that runs throughout the school. Our co-curricular offer is also diverse and includes anything from current affairs and debating to robot club and coding. Plus, as a member of the Girls’ Day School Trust, our pupils are able to access a whole world of opportunity as we harness the expertise of a broad network of staff to create innovative and inspirational learning alongside powerful connections with thought leaders.
Imagine if your daughter was able to access all this and more…or simply come and see for yourselves at one of our upcoming autumn open days.
